Long before last night's tree lighting in Belmar, the borough and surrounding area brought out the red bows and twinkling lights for the neighborhood.

In Manasquan, the tell-tale sign of the holidays is Christmas trees placed at key intersections, adorned with cheerful red decorations.

Local businesses such as the Spirit of 76, Squan Tavern and more are all in the holiday spirit, sporting their Christmas best.

In this photo gallery from Belmar and Manasquan, check out some of the decorations and add your own. Residents are taking to sporting some some nice wood cut-outs of carolers and Santa to massive strands of lights to shine through the night.
